DUROLINEM1/M2/M3/M4

DUROLINE M Series are ideal instruments for quality assurance, quality control, research and metallurgical departments to monitor the hardness during fabrication and after heat treatment or welding as well as for the performance analysis on metal parts and new alloys. Typical applications are determining the Vickers microhardness of small precision parts, thin material or wire, coatings and performing case depth determinations (CHD, EHT, NHT) on cross sections, both manually or automatic on this advanced hardness tester system.

Recently developed by an international multi-disciplinary team with a wide hardness testing experience, the DUROLINE M-Series are based on the latest technology available, focused on fast cycle time with high reproduceable accuracy within international standards. The system features a smart and very service-friendly synergy of a robust and proven mechanical construction and integrated electronics system control featured by a fast CANBUS technology and a high-quality Windows based mini-pc. Monitoring the hardness testing process significantly improved by using modern user interfacing technology such as 10-point multi-touch screen operation supported by a fast & secure display connection. Combined with top quality components and a high performance mini-pc, this system guarantees customers a solid and accurate performance over many years to come. In this way, the DUROLINE M Micro-Vickers hardness tester offers a highly functional and reliable automated indentation test & measurement system.

Complete micro-load range for HV/HK scales from 10gf to 1kgf

By selecting between 8 loads steps for microhardness testing in Vickers or Knoop, any specimen can be tested and measured within the applicable standards. Fast and easy setting of loads by a conventional manual knob.

Magnification range

Combining the excellent performance of the digital camera, LED illumination and software with a series of available objectives, the DUROLINE M Series provide correct measurement under any test load within the international standards .

DUROLINE M-Series Microhardness Tester

Robust Mechanical Design 22” Full HD Capacitive 10-pointMulti-Touch desktop monitor

High precision spindle with motorized option

For accurate microhardness testing and fast auto-focusing, the elevating speed and backlash of the spindle are critical. By using quality components and design experience, the DUROLINE M Series spindles guarantee long life without loss of accuracy due to wear and friction, even for automated Z-axis systems.

The METKON N-Sure software program features a flexible Windows based user interface that increases productivity and operator efficiency by automating the test & measurement process and optional motor-stage navigation process. Since the application and removal of the test loads and measurement are fully automatic, repeatability is excellent, testing time is reduced and throughput is increased. As a result, costly and time-consuming rework is eliminated.

For high-volume mounted sample testing, multi-sample mount holders are available for automated test applications to further increase the productivity and throughput of samples.

The easy-to-operate test & measurement program, clear images captured by integrated camera and high-resolution display on 22" touch screen monitor provide the lab staff easy access and shared visibility of indent results to analyze and discuss together. Operators are guided by the user-friendly program logic combined with quick manual system settings such as fast weight setting by the conventional manual knob. Vickers or Knoop hardness values are automatically generated on screen by use of the standard provided Auto-measurement function.

Database generating test results and reports

METKON N-Sure software program provides advanced database management of test results, report generation and printing fuctions. Saving and retrieving measurement data is an absolute requirement when it comes to testing hardness results of critical components in various industrial segments. The N-Sure program ensures that data is safely stored and presented in standard or customized reporting form.

GENERAL FEATURES HIGHLIGHT

Automatic Test & Measurement

The measurement program provided as standard the Auto-measurement function for fast and repeatable results. This provides extra convenience and time saving. Manual measurement is always possible, as well as re-measurement or deleting single hardness values.

N-Sure Advanced User Interface Software

The METKON N-Sure software program features a flexible Windows based user interface that increases productivity and operator efficiency by automating the test & measurement process. The User Interface has an immediate recognition and provides a user-friendly flexibility in settings and daily operation.

22” Full HD Multi-Touch Desktop Monitor

The easy-to-operate test & measurement program, clear images capture by integrated camera and high-resolution display on 22" touch screen monitor provide the lab staff easy access and shared visibility of indent results to analyze and discuss together.

Integrated Windows Operated Mini-PC

A Windows operated industrial mini-pc is hidden inside the hardness tester. Thus, no additional space is required for your laboratory. It is capable to work 24/7 thanks to its compact, robust design. Equipped with powerful Intel processor and SSD drive to provide smooth and fast operation.

Integrated High Resolution CCD Camera

A high resolution CCD camera is hidden inside the hardness tester. It has 6.4 MP resolution which provides to capture very clear indentation image for accurate auto measurement. It has 420MB/s USB 3.1 interface to transfer image to monitor without any delay. This means; when you move the specimen that under the objective, the image on the monitor also moves very smoothly and quickly at the same time.

Automatic Light Brightness

The light brightness is automatically adjusted by the user interface software for the best image quality and the most accurate auto measurements. The hardness tester equipped with powerful LED light source and compact optic system to provide excellent image quality.

Automatic Focus

(Available on M2 and M4 models)DUROLINE M2 and M4 models are equipped with high precision motorized spindle and Autofocus software module. It automatically sharpens the image in seconds. This provides extra convenience, maximum automation and time saving.

Motorized XY-Stage

(Available on M3 and M4 models)DUROLINE M3 and M4 models are equipped with high precision motorized XY-stage with 100x150 mm travel range and Autostage software module. It provides multiple tests & measurements fully automatically without operator intervention. Mapping function allows overview image of comple sample surface. The test points are easily determined on the sample with pre-defined or user defined patterns.

EHT - CHD Testing

XY-stage with one Slyvac digital micrometer and software module for EHT-CHD testing are optionally available for all DUROLINE M-Series. Possibility to direct reading of Slyvac micrometer signals by N-Sure software and generate case hardening depth graph.

Object Lenses

DUROLINE M equipped with 10x and 40x high quality German made object lenses for maximum image sharpness. 5x and 20x objectives are also optionally available for all kind of testing needs.

Test Blocks

ISO/DaKKS certificated German made test blocks are optionally available for Indirect verification of tester.

Indenters

ISO/DaKKS certificated German made Vickers and Knoop indenters are optionally available for most accurate and reliable testing.

ACCESSORIES

Test stages

The DUROLINE M Series feature various stages and fixtures that fit any application. Starting with the basic manual XY-stage with either mechanical or digital micrometers, the hardness tester can also be equipped with a motorized stage to facilitate single or multi-sample holders. To fix various geometries of specimen that are not mounted, there are several clamping devices available to finish the job quick and precise.
